Hi József
I am no guru or web developer but looking at the code [1] I think it is pulling
out distinct the ranks in order from the suggest response [2]. I see the code
has this:
<span ng-repeat="taxa in ['kingdom', 'phylum', 'class', 'order', 'family',
'genus', 'species']"
ng-if="match.model[taxa] && taxa != match.model.rank.toLowerCase()">
{{match.model[taxa]}}
</span>
Someone may correct me if I’m wrong, but since it’s the weekend here now it may
be some time – I hope this helps for starters…
Thanks,
Tim

Subject: [API-users] /species/suggest - higherClassificationMap question
Hi API gurus,
I assume, the search box functionality in the species page of gbif homepage
(e.g.: https://www.gbif.org/species/5298708) is based on "suggest". There each
result contains the scientific name and the full taxonomic hierarchy e.g. "Iris
pumila subsp. attica (Boiss. & Heldr.) K.Richt. Subspecies | Plantae >
Tracheophyta > Liliopsida > Asparagales > Iridaceae > Iris > Iris pumila".
My question: how is the hierarchy implemented? Is it based on
"higherClassificationMap"? How?
When I play with the suggest api, the XMLHttpRequest responseText in raw text
format contains the taxonomic hierarchy correctly (i.e. the physical order of
the entries in "higherClassificationMap" is correct). Unfortunately after
JSON.parse the resulting javascript object does not hold any information about
the physical order of the key/value pairs.
Is there any smart way to overcome this, or shall I hardcode the hierarchy
manually?
Thanks in advance.
József Szlamka
